In Romanian, when you want to know how someone is, you say, ce faci.
There are a lot of ways to respond to this.
Bine, I'm good, is one.
Mă simt rău, which means I'm feeling bad/not great.
But the one that cracked me up was this:
Nu mă plâng, meaning I'm not bad. However, it literally translates to I'm not crying.
Can't lie, I'm going to start saying this to people when they ask how I'm doing. "I've been better, but yanno? I'm not crying." LOL

One day
One day, I will learn to keep my mouth shut.
One day I will learn that, although they tell everyone else how smart they think you are, they don't honestly believe it themselves.
One day, I will be treated with the same respect and consideration that the men in my office are afforded.
Today is not that day.
Thank god it's Friday and I can go home and not deal with this for two days. And to think I was actually starting to feel better about myself this morning.

(Not All) Men
What is it with the men in my life not being able to tell me exactly what they want? I get that sometimes you're not 110% sure, but it seems like the ones I have to deal with regularly aren't even in the same ballpark as their wants.
